We don't see that Speedy every day! . . .

. . . and personally, no problem with Liberace, either. He was pals with Elvis. Doesn't get much cooler than that ;-) . . .

Thank you!

I think there's a niche market for bi-metal to begin with, add to it that its a late 80s LE and only available in the Italian Market and you have a recipe for a rare bird!
